Plex and Subtitles – 2

Subtitle Editor seems to be the go-to program for editing subtitles. However, being on a Mac, that’s no good for me as there are only Windows and Linux versions. The thing with having a Linux version of a tool though is that there’s a very good chance that it exists in Docker and that is, indeed, the case here.

https://hub.docker.com/r/fresta/subtitleedit

docker run --name=subtitleedit -e WIDTH=1280 -e HEIGHT=720 -p 3389:3389 -p 8080:8080 -v /media:/media fresta/subtitleedit

Just set /media to be something useful.

Three Days Later…

I think I’ve done it. I’ve actually got something working that I *think* I’m happy with. The key to the whole thing was to stop being stupid and actually look at what I was writing in the configuration. Now I just need to make sure I have a good backup and I can leave everything alone. Until it’s time to update that is…

Fifteen More Tries Later…

I’ve discovered that WordPress on docker is both simple and hard. The simple docker installation seems pretty trivial really, smushing it into the rest of the docker infrastructure seems a lot more complicated than I’d initially hoped.

Thing is, I think I kind of like it too. I just need to make it work. That means I’ll probably lose these posts but that’s no great loss to society…

Third (Fourth?) Try.

When you’ve got to make a start make a start with Docker. It makes trying and failing an easily repeatable task with no real loss other than time.
